Cacodyl oxide is a

organometallic compound synthesized in relatively pure form.[1][2]

"Cadet's fuming liquid", which is composed of cacodyl and cacodyl oxide, was originally synthesized by heating potassium acetate with arsenic trioxide. It has a disagreeable odor and is toxic.

The molecular structure of [Ph2As]2O (Ph =

phenyl), the tetraphenyl analogue of cacodyl oxide, has been established by X-ray crystallography.[3]
